The death of "beep-beep"...

When was the last time you heard the chime of a digital watch on the hour? Ten, fifteen years? I was just commenting this with a fellow watch nut last week. I remember a time when it was usual to hear within a margin of about about 30 seconds between five and ten "beep-beeps" during final exams, the movies or at your local temple of worship. Now, looking back it has been a long time since hearing that chime. Granted, it was annoying but it signaled an era. Since, it faded away without anybody noticing.

Do not feel sad, for those of you that miss that function but have outgrown the digital era there is always the "Strike One" by Chopard. It wis give you just that in a much more classy and discreet manner. It will set you back quite a bit but nothing compared to a full featured repeater.
